Chapter 121: Envoy to the Yue Chen Dynasty!
Zhao Cheng smiled when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to give the order to pass the decree: "Okay, pass on my will, and order the Ministry of Industry to recruit craftsmen to establish docks in the four major coastal cities of Lushunkou, Huai'an City, Qingyuan City, and Leizhou City, and make warships!" ”
Lushunkou is the Dalian of later generations, close to the Bohai Sea, Huai'an City is close to the Yellow Sea, Qingyuan City is close to the East China Sea, and Leizhou City is close to the South China Sea!
Zhao Cheng wanted to build a dock in the waters around Daqin, build warships on a large scale, train sailors, and go out to conquer small coastal countries at any time.
Zhao Cheng is looking forward to the Great Qin Naval Division, hoping that they can be like the Great Qin Army, invincible and invincible, and become one of the strongest navies in the world!
"Yes!" Zuo Yiming replied with a solemn expression.
When Wei San saw that the discussion was over, he opened his mouth and shouted: "If there is something to do, there is nothing to retreat from!" ”
"Ministers and other respectful to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!" The civil and military officials knelt on the ground and shouted loudly.
Under the congratulations of the ministers, Zhao Cheng left the Chengtian Hall through the back door and strode towards the imperial study.
Entering the imperial study, Zhao Cheng began to review and fold as before.
"The Yue Chen Dynasty planted high-grade rice on a large scale, and now in the territory of the North Vietnam, there are 100,000 acres of fertile land planted with high-grade rice seeds, and the grain obtained in a year is as high as 400,000 tons. 》
"Siam is planting high-grade rice on a large scale, and now in Siam, there are 120,000 acres of fertile land planted with high-grade rice seeds, and the grain obtained in a year is as high as 480,000 tons, and every time the Siamese people cultivate the fields, Siam will seriously threaten the transcendent status of Daqin over time!" 》
《..................................》
Zhao Cheng flipped through several folds, all of which were about the incident of planting high-grade rice seeds in neighboring countries, and the officials who uploaded the folds all thought that this would threaten the status of Daqin, and it was really a matter of raising tigers!
After reading many similar twists and turns, Zhao Cheng's brows furrowed slightly, and he had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
Fate made people, high-grade rice seeds saved the entire Daqin, but also gave neighboring countries a chance, high-grade rice seeds are easy to plant, only need a grain of rice, buried in the soil, you can grow a large crop!
Nowadays, many neighboring countries such as Siam, Yue Chen Dynasty, and India have planted high-grade rice seeds on a large scale, and even more distant countries have also obtained rice in Daqin, and in the long run, the level of these countries will rise in a straight line, and even pose a serious threat to Daqin!
The people take food as the sky, and with food, it is equivalent to having everything, and with food, he can sell it for money, recruit soldiers, and raise horses!
"Spread the letter to the palace to discuss matters!" After Zhao Cheng thought about it, he found that this matter was very serious, unprecedentedly serious!
"Yes!" Wei San, who was next to him, nodded hurriedly in response.
After a short period of time, Fang Xin came to the imperial study, and before he could leave the palace, he was stopped by Wei San.
"Bo Zhong, look at it!" Zhao Cheng didn't wait for Fang Xin to speak, and directly handed Fang Xin all the folds of a few books.
Fang Xin quickly took the folds, unfolded them one by one and watched them, after reading it, Fang Xin's brows also furrowed slightly, his expression was solemn, he took a deep breath, and bowed his hand: "Your Majesty, we can send an envoy to the neighboring countries to discuss this matter, let them become vassals of Great Qin, and let them pay 90% of the country's grain every year."
"In this way, we can not only avoid the confrontation of soldiers, but also hijack the development of neighboring countries!"
"Ninety percent?" Zhao Cheng was slightly stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Do you think they will agree?" Ninety percent, they have no benefit to gain at all, and they will definitely not agree to pay so much tribute! ”
Hearing this, the corners of Fang Xin's mouth raised slightly, revealing a proud smile and said, "Your Majesty, if they don't agree, we will use this reason to attack Siam, North Vietnam, India and other countries!" ”
"Although they have food, the population of Daqin is more than 60 million, and the soldiers and horses are 1.5 million, all of which are elite divisions, while the small countries such as Siam and the Yue Chen Dynasty do not have a combined population of 10 million, and the army is even less pitiful, and the weapons are not advanced, only India has a population of 10 or 20 million!"
"As far as Weichen knows, although India implements centralized power and is known as the XX Dynasty to the outside world, its domestic affairs are still in the form of a forest of countries, and the appeal of the dynasty is extremely low!"
"If Great Qin moves up, he will be able to easily defeat the enemy army!"
After hearing this, Zhao Cheng showed a thick smile on his face, pointed at Fang Xin thoughtfully, and said with a smile: "Haha, Bo Zhong, you are really in line with my heart, talk first and then soldier, wonderful!" Ha ha! ”
Zhao Cheng really likes Fang Xin, although Fang Xin reads Confucianism, but he does not have the rigidity of Confucianism!
When Fang Xin heard this, he smiled and said in his heart: "Didn't I learn this from you?" ”
Try not to beep as much as you can!
"And who to send to what?" Zhao Cheng asked again.
"Your Majesty, they are all small barbarian countries, there is no need to send ministers, just let the government offices close to neighboring countries send a small official!" Fang Xin said with an indifferent attitude.
For these small countries, Fang Xin really looks down on them!
After Zhao Cheng listened, he nodded slightly, feeling that it made sense, if it was a country that was friendly with him, it would be nothing to send capable ministers to envoys, but these countries, without the consent of the Great Qin Imperial Court, dared to plant high-grade rice seeds privately, and their wolf ambitions were clearly revealed!
Zhao Cheng sent envoys to give them face, but if he didn't give face, he directly sent troops to fight him!
Time passed slowly, and a week later, the Great Qin official mansions close to the neighboring countries all received the imperial court's holy decree, ordering each official to choose their own people and send envoys to foreign countries!
Yunnan County, Tianzhou City!
Tianzhou City is located on the southeastern border of Yunnan County, east of Huguang County, south of Yue Chen Dynasty.
At this time, in Tianzhou City, in the government hall, all officials at all levels entered, and the county ordered Qian Youde to sit in the first place.
"The imperial court has a decree and orders us to send a small official to the Yue Chen Dynasty to negotiate the matter of the vassal state, and ask the Yue Chen Dynasty to pay 90 percent of the country's harvest every year!" Qian Youde looked around at many officials and said slowly.
"Ninety percent of the country?" All the officials exclaimed in unison, feeling that this was unlikely.
What is 90 percent equivalent to? It is equivalent to you harvesting 100 catties of grain, you have to hand over 90 catties of grain to others, and the remaining 10 catties of grain, I'm afraid you can't support yourself at all!!
The Yue Chen Dynasty would never agree to this matter, even if the Qin State sent troops to threaten it!
The faces of all the officials were all seen by Qian Youde, and they were not surprised by this, so they then stroked their white beards and asked with a calm face: "You probably think that the Yue Bei Dynasty will not agree, right?" Lord Ben also thinks so, they will not agree, but we can all think that the Yue Chen Dynasty will not agree, can many adults and His Majesty in the court not think about it? ”
